Cheap tickets to Hull

tommy2k8

I am going to Hull in the next month - can anyone recommend the best and cheapest way to get there from London?

Almost certainly the cheapest way will be by Megabus (google it), it just depends on whether their timetable and journey times suit you.
You would take the train from St Pancras to East Midlands Parkway and then swap to a coach for the remainder of the journey.

Thankyou, and any idea on where I can stay for a couple of nights in London cheaply (if there is such a thing!)

Where abouts in London are you going?

The Colisseum to see the Bat Out Of Hell musical

Have a look at hotels or Airbnb in Hounslow/Acton Town or the north end of the Piccadilly line. It's then an easy journey to Leicester Square for the show.

This one is near Hounslow Central station: https://www.travelodge.co.uk/hotels/575/London-Hounslow-hotel

And this one is near Southgate:

Thankyou - She hasn't been to London before, so I want to find some cheap(ish) attractions!

I'd recommend the Tate Modern (free) and a walk on the South Bank (free/outdoors) to anyone who hasn't been before.

Tommy, are you going to London or Hull?

I guess 'she' is someone else?

Ah.. you are going to Hull and 'she' is going to London.

This looks like a case of two threads being better than one.

Okay, sorry, I shall explain myself better.

I am going to Hull and bringing a friend of mine to London to go to The Coliseum. She has never been to London before, so I thougbt instead of taking her straight back, I thought I would show her some sights. I thought maybe a Hop On / Hop Off bus tour or a boat trip down the Thames or something?
